Feeling A Strong Connection without Even Speaking?
Whilst walking through a crowded shopping centre, I came across a guy browsing in a sports store - fairly average, probably a year or so older than me. There was just this moment where our eyes met and it was like the world stopped (corny but yeah, ha ha). We left the store at the same time and went in different directions. About 15 minutes later we came across each other again, he smiled. At this moment I was like " wow, is this fate?" (ugh, I don't think so). But there was this connection. I wouldn't mind seeing him again.Note: I am not being shallow and basing my judgment on appearance - as he wasn't drop-dead gorgeous.
Anyway my point is have you ever met someone who you felt really strong about, even though you guys haven't spoken? Have you come across a stranger and then after a year or two (or longer) you guys bumped into each other and gone "HEY, I KNOW YOU"? A good story would be that that stranger actually became your current SO.

its called lust
Love at first sight doesn't exist, it's more like lust at first sight. Love is when you care about someone more and more every day and you would do anything to make them happy and you want to spend forever with them, lust is just when you find them attractive. It's not fate. Like Edward Cullen.
Yeah I have had it happen, we ended up connecting later and being friends for awhile.
I don't necessarily believe in love at first sight. I belive that you can see some one and form a connection with them but I don't believe that is love.
Haha, sounds like you want to hear a good story. I remember one time I got asked out by a stranger. I had to decline, but I did bump into him like half a year later. I don't think he recognized me, though -- I tend to change my hair drastically every now and then, so people always have trouble recognizing me.
Despite some of the other comments you've gotten so far, I totally believe that you can have that Romeo and Juliet connection. I've had one before, so I know it's real. Unfortunately, no happy ending that I can share with you today. :/
Is it fate playing tricks or what? Wish you luck anyway. :)
It's not love at first sight, but I do know about the connection you're talking about. There was someone I saw at every local concert and I was very drawn to him. I didn't understand why and avoided him at all costs because I had no idea why I was feeling what I was feeling. Years went by and I finally saw an opportunity to at least talk to him and maybe figure it out. From our first conversation the connection was like a physical force. So very powerful. We've been inseparable for almost a year now. :]
that's a pretty cool story :D Maybe you'll meet him again, and you can talk :) I've never had that happen - for some reason I'm really bad at faces
Yeah. It happened to me over a year ago and we still see each other
.
Yes, this has happened to me once before. I met this guy when I was a cashier at a local deli, and I can't explain why I was drawn to him. I couldn't take my eyes off him, and I felt like I had always known him. He was just so warm and he was literally glowing. I think we were glowing at each other. Unfortunately, he was with his mom, and I didn't get a chance to talk to him, and never saw him again.
Maybe I'll meet him again one day ;)
This has actually happened to me once. I was in high school and the first day of school of sophomore year there he was, in my math class. He was a freshman and we never really spoke but for some reason I was always thinking about him. I am pretty sure it wasn't lust because I didn't think he was gorgeous or anything. But as the year progressed I found out these little things about him and I became attracted to him even more. Yet, I never had the courage to speak to him. Why? Who knows.
haha it never happened to me, but hopefully you'll meet the guy again! :]
Serendipity? lol....cute
korean dramas status. you guys are going to bump into each other, go on a date, and you'll find out he's going to the same school as you this fall. BUT on the other hand, it turns out he's the son of an evil CEO mother & she doesn't want you guys to be together.
ohmahgah. lmao no. i'm just kidding. but i know what you mean. but i don't see it as this "exclusive connection" really, because i've experienced it with quite a few guys already. i guess it is somewhat a connection though, or natural attraction is what would probably be better wording.
@msarianne@xanga - hahaha i wish he went to my school (an all girls school) that would be quite interesting. AND THEN we got together and then there are people trying to break us up and then i had to leave my country for college and then while i was away he got hit by a car and then he lost his memory and then when i came back, he didn't know who i was. LIKE OMFG! rofl jokesss.
It is not just him that i've experienced the attraction with, i think many guys before
Once, with my ex. Turned out he was the "friend" my friend was trying to meet up with, and I'd been staring at him from across the food court the whole time. =p
@Whiskers - he didn't know who you were, but not only that when you come back, you find that there is this second girl/AKA evil enemy in the picture that was obsessed with him for a long time and jealous of you. and when he lost his memory, she told him that she was his girlfriend and that you were bad and evil! and he starts hating you but then you guys are forced to work together on a project for whatever reason and you guys argue and hate each other at first but then fall in love despite one another's flaws. AND he regains memory! :D LOL. ohmahgah. we should be korean drama directors. lmaoo our shizz would be more famous than boys before flowers :x!
:D i go to an all-girls school too, btw. buuuut back to my point, definitely, i'd suggest if you see him again or any guy you feel strong vibes wit. give him the look wit a smile. and all that nice stuff. and go up to him. i mean, i hate the feeling of being left to wonder. and not knowing. so take a chance. ya never know.
that happened to me in 2004. i met a guy and the minute we talked things just clicked and for that moment, the world around us froze and it was just him and me chatting. i'm sure there was something between us, but at the time, i wasn't emotionally ready to be in a relationship so i didn't proceed further. but maybe one day, if our paths cross, then i'll post about it.
@msarianne@xanga - haha we sure are great directors. We can make heaps of money and then once i have heaps of money i can advertise billboards around the state looking for that particular guy.
Also i didnt just met this guy in some local shopping centre. It was at some place that i would never go to, this asian grocery shopping place, 1 hours from where i live. But who knows, i may met him when i go college/Uni.
mms. well i went iceskating with my friends and some other people about 2-3 years ago and one of the girls bought along this guy. when they left, i made eye-contact with him and thought 'why does he keep smiling so much?' about half a year later i was in the city with some friends and they stopped to talk to a group that he was part of, i thought 'hey, it's that smiley guy from iceskating!' another half a year later i added this random guy to my msn. i was out one day and for some reason i was thinking about his display pic. he was smiling in it and i thought BINGO! it's the same guy!
.. not that he remembered seeing me all those times, but long story short - we eventually started dating =P
haha okaaay so it has some lose relation to your story, point is i guess .. it's a small world? VERY small world. who knows, might not be long before you see him again ;D
@msarianne@xanga - evil CEO mother? hana yori dango/meteor garden style? :) MG season 2, they're halfway around the world from each other yet still find each other in the end. true connection right there. :)
haha yess! lust! of course.Â
i didnt personally know anyone, but my ex that left me for the other guy did =)
Is lust really the word for this? Lust is one of the seven deadlies so I dunno...
I've come across situations where I just imagine a future with random girls... but that's just me. Into that whole long term BS.
yup
@Dare2BDiferentt@xanga - Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahaha. Edward Cullen. That's why I think she'd be better off with Jacob... then again I'm only on the third book (totally reading out of curiosity).
yeah :P
I went to a talent show. He was playing for a girl but he wasn't the actual act. It wasn't Lust, I actually thought he was ugly at first... but I was intrigued. About 5 months later I started taking guitar, turns out it was the guy's bestfriend teaching me. fate, huh?
